Project playerCentral defender

S. Moore is a 29-year-old central defender at FC Dallas, rated 31.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 275th of 436 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (92.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.93 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Moore.

Judged on this season alone, Moore graded 26 — a solid campaign that ranks top 34% of the 101 centre-backs in the Major League Soccer, on 4 clean sheets and 2.926 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 26 → 26). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 61st of 101 of the 101 centre-backs in the Major League Soccer. At 29 Moore is in his prime years, and a market index of 4.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 4 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 15) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 92.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 31.7, Moore carries the 61st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Major League Soccer of 101. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.93 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
